Rajesh Khanna was a legend in his life time. His movies had a very rare combination of romance, style, grace and music. There can never be another like him. All true lovers of music and graceful action will miss him for a very long time. Thanks for every thing Mr.Khanna. May your soul rest in peace.his favorite song Mai Shayar Badnaam
